Elaphomyces uliginosus Hesse is lectotypified and placed in the synonymy of E. anthracinus Vitt. The German collections tentatively identified with E. uliginosus by Dodge represent E, leveillei Tul. and are excluded. Previous treatments of E. uliginosus are commented on. The name E. uliginosus has hitherto been applied to material of E. anthracinus, E. leveillei and E. maculatus Vitt. A key covering all black Elaphomyces (6 species) known from the Nordic countries, is presented.
